EG DEG Digital Classrooms
Screening of Ethylene Glycol and Diethylene Glycol in Medicinal Syrup
Introducing our "Ultra-Fast Bites" series, designed to provide you with quick insights into the latest trends and hot topics in science. In this episode, we will be discussing the concerning issue of Ethylene Glycol (EG) and Diethylene Glycol (DEG) screening in medicinal syrup. In Indonesia and Gambia, deaths among children have been reported due to such contamination, prompting the World Health Organization (WHO) to issue a global alert on this urgent problem.
Our senior application chemist, Dr Chia Chee Geng, will explain how the Shimadzu GCMS-QP2020 NX presents an optimal solution for accurately identifying and measuring EG and DEG in medicinal syrup within a single injection.
Brevis GC As EG DEG Analyzer – Your Turnkey Solution For Pharmaceutical Excipients Analysis
In continuation of the above-mentioned session, which tested for ethylene glycol (EG) and diethylene glycol (DEG) in medicinal syrup, this Digital Classrooms session goes a step further to identify EG and DG in pharmaceutical excipients, in compliance with USP and IP monographs.
During this session, we will introduce an end-to-end workflow featuring our newly launched Brevis GC. As an EG/DEG analyzer, Brevis GC provides a comprehensive solution for quickly and accurately identifying these contaminants during the manufacturing process. Furthermore, the workflow solution offers automated reporting features that streamline the report generation process for faster turnaround time.
Tune in to our application specialist, Peter Puah, who will share how Shimadzu's solutions can enable fast and accurate analysis of EG and DEG for effective quality control to prevent further tragedies.
